Munich

Munich is an Academy Award-nominated 2005 film directed by Steven Spielberg and written by Tony Kushner and Eric Roth. The movie is set after the 1972 Munich massacre and follows a Mossad squad, led by "Avner" (Eric Bana), which is ordered to track down and kill the Black September terrorists thought to be responsible for the Israeli athletes' murders. The extent to which the movie represents fact is a matter of debate. Spielberg himself refers to it as "historical fiction" saying it is inspired by actual events, specifically what became known as Operation Wrath of God. The film was shot in various places around Malta [1] (which stands in for Israel, Cyprus, Athens and for Rome and Paris as well, in some scenes) and in Budapest (standing in for London [2], Rome [3] and for the German airport of Fürstenfeldbruck [4]).
